Editing Software

[JothamTyler123]

Hello guys,
Was just wondering what photo editing software you lot use for merging photos so you have two cars in a photo travel shot, if that makes enough sense for you to understand

Don't use it myself but Adobe Photoshop is probably your best bet.

Could do with some free software ideally, as I'm 15 and don't have any money to pay for one :/

Please make sure your anti virus is up to date 1st,
but try gimpshop free and pretty basic but the main tools are there.

something i did with it years ago

Why use the torrent site when you can just go to adobe site and download the 30 day trial version I've never used gimp myself but your images have to match exactly in order to be successful, Photoshop just let's you cut and paste your images on the other hand it's not easy to learn and use- good luck

I think I'm downloading a Paint Shop Pro 30-day trial, ill try the Adobe Photoshop one too!

Nice forza pics btw, but i wonder if the OP is trying get multiple cars in one shot? I never used gimp before but is it possible to cut multiple images and merge with a final image?

 

[JothamTyler123]

Yeah that's what I'm trying to do, get more than one car in one shot, I've seen some great ones on here, and was just wondering how I could do something maybe half as good myself..

Yep lining up the right cars at the right angles for the shot can be fun! Don't forget you can turn your lights on and change the directions of your front wheels in photo mode.

 

[JothamTyler123]

Yeah I know that much, I just cant find any half-decent software that is easy enough to get the desired finished photo..

Try to keep it legal here (the mods don't like us discussing piracy ). Going with what Londoner said, get GIMPShop as it's a PS Clone that looks even more like PS. If you want a more in-depth (but free) program, just use GIMP.
I use GIMP instead of GIMPShop (cleaner imo) but I've got CS3 now anyways 👍

 

[JothamTyler123]

This site has got to have some of the most retarded rules of any site I've been on! Some of it is just ridiculous! And I've been on some pretty strange sites! Just saying..

 

[Daniel]

They're not retarded. Piracy is illegal after all. Plus, do other forums have better quality?

 

[JothamTyler123]

By "strange sites" i didnt necessarily mean forums! You don't know some of the weird crap my mates have sent me mate, some of it freaked me out, and there isn't much that can do that! And I don't really use forums,I think the only sites I pretty much go on are this, Facebook, eBay, MyGT, and some other sites that I probably shouldn't mention..

If you can't afford Photoshop, Gimp is the way to go

Try Paint.net, simple,free and lots of plug-ins to assist. As good as Photoshop.

I use paint.NET, it's just as good as photoshop, like Thecla246 said. A few tweaks and you got more than Photoshop...
